What do you get when you cross a children's suitcase with the pincushion club from Soed Idee and the "Antoinette" fabrics from French General? A French stitching case "Ma Valise de Broderie".
I've been thinking about it for a long time and now the 12.5 year anniversary seemed like the time to launch this.

What does it all mean?
There will be 5 parts: on May 1, 2024 the lid of the suitcase and then 4 more times (June 15, August 15, October 15 and December 15) a small package to fill the suitcase (scissor hanger, pincushion, etc.). So at the end of 2024 you will have a complete stitching set in a matching suitcase.

What options are there?
* Complete package at the end of April with:
- natural colored suitcase
- 32 ct linen in the color natural raw 25 x 140 cm (for the entire project). Other fabric is (for organizational reasons) not possible.
- 5 strands of Soie D'Alger 2 x white and 3 x your choice in red, blue or brown
- cardboard to size of lid
- embroidery pattern cover
Then 4 more packages with pattern and necessary finishing materials (again in red, blue or brown). This includes all shipping costs. An additional surcharge applies for shipping abroad.

* Complete package in installments. You will also receive the complete package, but you can pay for it in installments. You now pay €36.00, another €36.00 at the end of April before delivery of the package, and another 4 x €16.00 at the beginning of June, August, October and December. These are average amounts, the composition of each package varies.

* Only the patterns. You pay this in one go, including shipping 5 times.
Please note if you only order the patterns: the pattern for the lid is exactly size for the suitcase I use (25 x 18 cm). If your own suitcase is a different size or you use a different fabric, the pattern may not fit and you will have to adjust it yourself!

 

De Randjes are inextricably linked to Soed Idee and continue to attract people! A while ago I bought three red school cloths from one maker “Tona Janse” from Hellevoetsluis. 2 patches are dated 1908 and 1909, the third is probably from 1910. It is clear that this concerns 3 years of craft education. The patches contain a lot of Edges (and a few alphabets and number series), which increase in difficulty. Some edges are familiar and others are completely new. I was able to combine them relatively easily into one whole “Tona's Edges” (coincidentally, my mother-in-law's name was also Tona and she was a fanatic embroiderer!) 

Tona's Randjes are a complete pattern of both the complete version and the adapted version on tape, published in a beautiful book.

The book is in both Dutch and English.
